Happy April Fools Day!

I'm not going to play some prank on you though. April is such a great month. Did you know that April is "Keep America Beautiful" month? It's also home to Earth Day and Arbor Day. Yes, there's much more to our fourth month than taxes, rain, and baseball's opening day.

There's actually an entire organization - Keep America Beautiful - that focuses on keeping our country beautiful through litter prevention, waste reduction, and community improvement. Check it our at www.kab.org. We want to do our part to keep our country, and this community that we live and work in, beautiful.

In addition to our regular flower planting this year, we decided to plant a garden at our home. Our 2 sons are heading the project up. So far we have beans, tomatoes, pumpkins, watermelons and much more. I'm excited to see how it turns out. Maybe you could start a garden. It's not that hard.

In addition to planting a garden, we are starting to recycle our plastics, cans and paper products. It's as simple as placing three separate bins in the garage and once they are full take them to the recycling center. Check out Recycle Williamson County's Facebook page for more details on drop off locations. 

Don't hesitate to call us at 618.988.8731 for planting or recycling advice. I'ts a small step but it all adds up. Together, we can make a difference and keep our country beautiful.

Until next time,
Jason Shadowen

Install Ceiling Fans!
Moving air tends to help you feel warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, allowing for lower wintertime and higher summertime thermostat settings. The effect is equivalent to about 4 Degrees Fahrenheit, and using less energy than air conditioners and furnaces in doing so.

Use Task Lighting.

Why pay to brightly light an entire room if you're working in just a portion of it? Instead, try focusing light only where you need it. On your desk when paying bills in your home office. Under the kitchen cabinets when chopping ingredients for dinner. Or, on a side table when reading in bed.

Take 15% OFF Under Cabinet Installation if you respond to this blog by 1-28-11. Don't Delay, Schedule Service Today! 618.988.8731

You should be aware that many contractors in the home services business do not have the proper licenses or have not properly registered with the communities they serve. Hiring a contractor that is appropriately licensed or registered assures that the contractor will be allowed to obtain permits that may be required for the job. It also demonstrates that the licensing or registering community recongnizes the contractor as legitimate and will monitor the work to assure that the appropriate codes are being followed for your safety. Electrical Detectives are licensed, bonded and insured. Call Our Experts today!
